Spring is in the air!

As spring comes into full bloom so does that yard work. I have already started mucking out my backyard in earnest. Once I have completed this process, I will be laying down more landscape fabric and pine straw. Hopefully, I can convince my wife that outlining the various areas of the yard (Grassy Gnoll, Mulchy Slope, Pine Strawed lower section) with stone. I think it will complete the look and tie in all areas of the yard.

Because my lot is extremely sloped, my wife and I have decided to add a deck to the back of the house and to take the existing deck and turn it into a covered and screened in porch. This will add a couple of hundred feet of usable space and make the existing space even more usable.




I will be reporting on the process of this project over the next several weeks. I will also keep you updated on the backyard landscaping.
